Soil and water conservation technologies in the sudan savana of west Africa: cropping system options to increase and stabilize yields under current climate change impact. Dissertation by Isaac Danso, 2015
In the Sudan Savanna region of West Africa, smallholder agricultural production is almost entirely rain-fed. Some of the major constraints to crop production are low soil fertility and high intra- and inter-annual rainfall variability. The above...
Bulk density per Horizon and per Soil Type, Dano Catchment (Burkina Faso)
Bulk density values for the 21 soil units of the Dano catchment. Also include the horizon depth for each soil.
Administrative Divisions of Burkina Faso
Administrative Divisions of Burkina Faso. This WMS consists of four administrative divisions: international, regional, provincial and department level. The data is available as geospatial data for local use.
Peak runoff and flood hazard maps of three watersheds in Burkina Faso, Benin and Ghana
Flood hazard maps showing information on extent, severity and probability integrated in a flood hazard index in Burkina Faso, Benin and Ghana.
Household Data Describing Agricultural Production Practices and Livelihoods in the Vea Watershed, Ghana, 2013-14
This dataset describe household survey conducted in the Vea watershed of Ghana between the periods May 2013 to February 2014. It describes several household characteristics such as age, gender, income sources, agricultural production levels,...
Projected Future (2020-2050; 2070-2100):Daily Outputs of Near-surface Air Temperature from the High Resolution (0.11°) Regional Climate Model Simulations (CCLM-MPIESM-LR) over West Africa, (WASCAL Project)
High resolution (0.11°) regional climate simulations were carried out by the researchers at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Institute of Meteorology and Climate Research, Atmospheric Environmental Research (KIT/IMK-IFU) as part of the West...
Modeling Flood Hazard Zones at the Sub-District Level with the Rational Model Integrated with GIS and Remote Sensing Approaches
Robust risk assessment requires accurate flood intensity area mapping to allow for the identification of populations and elements at risk. However, available flood maps in West Africa lack spatial variability while global datasets have...
